For a team that suffered a 32-point loss to a Division II school in their first game action this season, is it fair to say that the St. John's Red Storm have hit a new low point on the year?
An embarrassing loss against Incarnate Word on Friday night was followed up with an absolute clunker this afternoon against NJIT, as the Johnnies dropped their second straight at home in a 83-74 loss.
You could point to any number of things as the reason for this loss. Maybe it was the poor shooting—the Red Storm (7-5) shot 34 percent from the field, went 8-32 from downtown, and hit just 16 of their 32 free throws—or maybe it was the lack of perimeter defense.
